On the ESPN live broadcast booth, Luo Lin shook his head and said: "Old K has made up his mind to strengthen his attack on the basket, kill opponents, and at the same time improve his own offensive efficiency.

   This is a very cruel way to kill opponents through the strongest confrontation, but it is also the most effective way.

   To be honest, old K should reduce this kind of offense, Sabonis is also a giant beast, with a strong reaction force, he himself may be injured. "

Oldman nodded and said: "This has always been the style of old K. The reason why he is more efficient in the playoffs than in the regular season is because in the playoffs, the proportion of his offense at the basket will increase and decrease. Nearly two-point offense."

  Rollin said: "The postman shouldn't have a big problem, he can play slowly. But this is not the way to play. Sabonis is too slow to move, he can't guard against old K, and the Jazz must find another way."

   Oldman said: "The Jazz won two games against the Lakers in the regular season, and they played well on the offensive end, using the high point attack formed by Sabonis to contain the old K's defense.

But now in the playoffs, the intensity of confrontation is completely different. Sabonis can fight against Old K in the regular season, but in the playoffs he cannot withstand the strong confrontation of Old K. By creating a strong confrontation on the offensive end, Old K will fight against him. In order to achieve effective killing, this is to attack and attack, and see who can't bear it first. "

  Rollin said with a smile: "It turned out that Sabonis couldn't handle it and lost the G1 battle. Now that the big bug is injured, he can only continue to fight. It is very difficult for the Jazz."

   "The big bug has returned to the locker room. I don't know if he can still fight. If he can't fight, the Jazz is really in trouble." Oldman nodded.

   At this time, on the Jazz bench, Jerry Sloan was informed that Rodman had sprained his waist, and he was very disappointed that this match could not be played.

  The postman is no big problem, now he has to decide whether to let Sabonis continue to fight, or replace it and put another meat shield.

   In the end, he still gritted his teeth and decided to let Sabonis continue to play. After all, the defensive end can't guard the **** old K, but it can still play a big role in the offensive end.

   On the Lakers bench, the team doctor checked Pharaoh. After all, there was a strong collision with Sabonis, and he was afraid of injury.

   But no problem, his upper body is very resistant to injuries and may have already reached the limit of level 105.

   Now the overall resistance to injury and illness has reached level 99, and the ability to resist injury and illness is already very strong, and this collision can still be tolerated.

   The timeout ends and the game continues.

   Sabonis did not go to the high post, but pulled to the left wing. Pharaoh could only follow and defend. Then the Postman singled Fortson in the low post on the right wing. Pharaoh quickly returned to the basket, but the Postman shot in time and hit a half basket.

   Zhang Lili said: "This is the role of Sabonis, pulling the iron army out and creating singles opportunities for the postman.

  If Tiejun doesn't follow, he can single out any Lakers player in a dislocation. "

Looking back, the Lakers attacked. Pharaoh found that Sabonis was not defending him very much, but the postman accelerated his defense. When he took the ball and swooped in, he was blocked by the postman. The two collided, and his ball Out of the bottom line, he didn't call him an offensive foul, which was considered a mistake.

  Rollin praised: "The Postman's weak-side assist defense is very fast this time, and Fordson was almost empty by him. The Lakers should give Fortson a few more strong passes to control the Postman's assist defense speed."

   As the commentator said, the next time the Lakers attacked, Pharaoh got the ball and gave it to Fordson in time.

  Fortson had a mid-range shot and made that shot, and then the Postman didn't dare to short his own man so recklessly.

  The postman was restrained, and Pharaoh's side immediately stepped up the onslaught. Sabonis couldn't bear it at all. He scored consecutive baskets.

   However, the Jazz also played well on the offensive end and were not behind much. For a while, the Lakers had a small lead.

   But the Lakers continued to expand the point difference steadily and steadily through Pharaoh's stable and efficient low-post and basket offense.

   When Sabonis came off the court in the 7th minute of the first quarter, the Jazz finally couldn't hold it anymore, the offense couldn't stand it, and the rebound couldn't stand it either.

   However, the Jazz immediately and decisively took foul tactics and used the prepared meat shield to frequently send Pharaoh to the free throw line, but he felt cold in his free throw today and missed many free throws.

After the first quarter, Pharaoh made 7 of 10 shots, 2 of 9 free throws, and scored 16 points and 5 rebounds.

  26:30, the Lakers lead by only 4 points.

   Zhang Lili sighed: "The Lakers were actually quite active today, but they couldn't score when they got the upper hand. The Tiejun's free throws are a big problem today.

   When Sabonis was on the court, the Jazz also played quite well offensively. The Lakers are now better at defending against pick-and-rolls, but they still can’t defend against the Jazz’s offense. When he goes down, he uses foul tactics to grab the score.

   Now the Lakers should pay attention to one point. After Sabonis comes on the court, play your own offense well and don’t be led by the Jazz.

   And the iron army is adjusting well, especially the free throw, if the penalty still misses, the Jazz will definitely insist on using foul tactics. "

  Suqun said: "Old K played the whole game in G1, and only went off in the last few minutes when the advantage was too great. I'm afraid the same is true today, and he won't go off the court.

   However, his physical fitness is indeed very strong. He often plays the whole court in the playoffs. Now is his peak period. Staying on the court for a long time is very oppressive to the opponent. "

Nodding, Lao Zhang said: "It is precisely because he has the physical strength to play the whole court, and he will drag the opponent to death. Now the Jazz are also the same, the postman is forced to play with him and cannot take a rest, and Sabonis' playing time will definitely need to be played. If the series goes on like this, let’s see who can endure it, if I can’t hold it up, I will collapse.”

  Suqun smiled and said, "You don't have to wait until the entire series, in the second half, or in the fourth quarter, the Jazz will collapse if they can't stand their fitness.

The Lakers' bench lineup is very strong. Mullin, Fox, and Hill were waiting on the bench and screaming, and there was old K who could play the whole court. I don't think the Jazz can hold it. It is very likely that the second half of the third quarter. The segment may not be able to bear it. "

   "It's really possible."

Lao Zhang said with a smile: "The postman is 35 years old. His physical fitness is very good. He has 37 minutes in the regular season. He can play a little longer in the playoffs, but it is a maximum of 40 minutes of physical fitness. Not in status.

  Stockton is 36 years old. He can only play 29 minutes per game in the regular season this season. He will stick to it in the playoffs, at most 30 minutes.

   Hornacek is also 35 years old, which is 30 minutes.

   Not to mention Sabonis, he can only play for 20 minutes in the regular season, and the playoffs are against the Iron Army. To be honest, he may end at any time.

   Five starters, four old guys, and a physical monster like Tiejun in a series match, have a very big disadvantage, and they will be dragged to death. "

   The two of them really talked. In the next game, the Jazz were dragged into a battle of physical exhaustion by the Lakers. They were able to bite at the beginning, but as the game progressed, they gradually couldn't keep up.

   Lao Wang played a high-intensity confrontation throughout the game. Sabonis played for two and a half quarters and only played for a total of 22 minutes, and he really couldn't hold it.

No matter how he hides and plays on the defensive end, he cannot completely avoid the confrontation of Pharaoh. He was knocked down twice later, the old injury recurred again, and his physical strength could not bear it. With 3 minutes left in the third quarter, he went down. , never came up again.

  Stockton and Hornacek were also forced to reduce their rest rotation time. They both played about 33 minutes in three quarters. They only dared to take a one-minute break in a quarter, and they went up after a few breaths.

  The postman even accompanied Pharaoh to play the whole game and did not dare to rest for a minute. The Jazz used their powerful offensive ability to barely carry three quarters. At the end of the three quarters, the score was 11 points behind.

   At this time, there is still the possibility of chasing points from the point of view of the score, but in fact, the Jazz's physical fitness has collapsed.

   Entering the final quarter, the Lakers' lineup consists of Wang Tiejun, Teilon Hill, Rick Fox, Chris Mullin, and Fisher.

   Among these five players, except for Pharaoh, the other four played within 15 minutes, and they were all new players. Except for Fisher, whose strength was not very good, the other four were the main players.

   On the Jazz side, they had to change to the bench lineup, because the main lineup was no longer able to move, and Stockton and others had cramps and only got on a postman.

   The last quarter was the most suspenseful game period, but it was directly turned into garbage time by the Lakers. It was considered a smooth victory in G2, winning 21 points and 10 points in the last quarter.

  Wang Tiejun came off the court in the 7th minute of the last quarter, played 43 minutes, made 20 of 28 shots, and the shooting rate was 71.4%, which was lower than the G1 strategy. He made 8 of 21 free throws, and the shooting rate was 38.1%. He scored 48 points and 18 rebounds.

  When the Jazz's physical fitness is not a problem, the offense is very important. In order to compete with the Jazz's offense, he took a lot of shots. He took the ball more than 40 times and was fouled 18 times.

   After the game, Zhang Lili smiled and said: "The shooting percentage is good, the Tiejun is constantly attacking the basket, do you know that your hand is not good today?"

  Su Qun said with a smile: "The 38% free throw shooting rate is too low. To win the game, it all depends on his physical fitness and the Lakers' deeper lineup.

   But old K should know that his hand is not good, right? He missed two free throws at the beginning, so he specially strengthened his attack at the basket? "

   "Ask him later, haha!" Lao Zhang laughed.

   In the ESPN live booth, Winston Rollin shook his head and sighed: "This Jazz is really strong, but they are old and injured. If they don't do anything in the past two years, this team will have no future."

  Oldman said: "The black and white Shuangsha and the death light gun add up to 106 years old, and next year will be 109 years old, which is too old.

  From the beginning of this season, both the Dead Light Guns and Stockton have played six or seven minutes less than last season, which shows that they have not been able to play.

  The Lakers can now grind to death the Jazz and the Postman in the series with their deep bench lineup and the physical advantage of Old K. "

   "That is, the Postman can still play, 37 minutes in the regular season and 40 minutes in the playoffs. If he fails, the Jazz will rebuild." Rollin said.

Oldman thought for a while and said: "There are the Lakers and the Trail Blazers in the West, two major roadblocks, and the old K and Duncan are so young, the economic strength of the Lakers and the Trail Blazers are very strong, the old Jazz want to make a difference ,too difficult!

  If Black and White Shuangsha and Death Light Gun want to win the championship, besides leaving the team, they can only imitate the big dream and find a superstar who is willing to take a basic salary in his prime. "

   "Puff!"

  Rorin burst into laughter instantly.

   "Fake Oil! Damn commentator, the glider was not in its prime at that time, nor was he a basic salary, he went to Houston to sign a pension contract, you idiot!"

   Far away in Portland, the big dream watching the game broke into a curse.

   Losing the away game again, the Jazz's morale was a little low, and back in the visiting team's locker room, no one spoke.

   The regular season and the Lakers were tied with two wins and two losses. Everyone in the Jazz originally had strong confidence and hope, but after the two games, the disadvantages were obvious, which made them a little unacceptable.

   In particular, they were not lost in technology, let alone tactics, but in age and physical fitness, which made them very unwilling.

   Especially the postman, he is still at his peak, his physical skills are at his peak, but this year he may not even be able to make it to the Western Conference Finals, which is too unwilling.

  The home team's locker room has a completely different atmosphere, quite relaxed.

   "Old K, your free throw today was a shame, and you almost didn't get hacked to death by the Jazz." Chris Mullin teased.

   Fox laughed: "The Jazz have two bench insiders and six fouls. Sabonis, the Postman, and the Big Bug each fouled at least three times on you. Five big knives took turns to slash, and they didn't get hacked. Good luck."

   Old Wang laughed and said, "It's fortunate that I have you, or else I would have been hacked to death by Sir."

   He is not exaggerating. He is not a strong backup like Mullin, Fox, and Tyron Hill. Today, the Lakers may not be able to do the Jazz.

   Kobe kept silent, holding his statistics sheet in his hand with a smile on his face.

Today he played 31 minutes and scored 18 points. The points are not too many, but the efficiency is good. The shooting percentage reached 54%, which is very high in the playoffs, and is far stronger than his first and second rounds. G1 battle performance.

   Played so well because he was in charge of the flank's cutting tactics today and ran a lot, but Hornacek, who was guarding him, had physical problems in the third quarter and couldn't keep up with him.

  Silver Fox Harris is also very happy, he won the best coach, and now he has two consecutive victories in the second round, the Western Conference finals are in sight, and he is in a good mood.

   But he reminded the players that in the next two away games, Salt Lake City is the Devil's home, and the atmosphere at home is particularly strong, so everyone should be careful.
